The account of the birth of Jesus Christ holds great and important lessons for us. His birth dramatically changed the course of human history. The Heavens heralded His birth, the celestial choirs sang beautiful melodies of praise to proclaim His birth to the world(Luke 2:9-14). No other birth has been so significant before His and neither has there been any other afterwards. It is worthy of note the fashion in which Jesus Christ, the only begotten son of God was born. He was conceived of the Holy Spirit, carried by a virgin, a spectacular miracle(Luke 1:26-37). He left His glory above to be born in a humble place of a Stable. The King of kings was lain in a manger for his cradle…Oh what an example of humility, for though He had all the powers of Heaven he stooped low to identify with the poor and lowly. Little wonder then, that the first persons to hear of the joyful news of His birth were poor shepherds. We must then be grateful, for none of us is exquisite enough, rich enough or in…

“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armour of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places”. Ephesians 6:10-12.

There is no mincing words, life has its battles. We live in a world of forces, ones we encounter in the physical realm and those we cannot encounter physically but in the spirit realm. We are well aware of the forces of friction, gravity, magnetism, electricity, and of course the push-pull forces we exert on things in the natural world. These forces impact our world and we daily experience their effects. We know from Newton’s first law …

When an accused person stands trial before a Judge in the law court, one of the things done in the course of his trial is that he or she is given a chance to agree with the charges as brought against him or to deny it. The question often put forth to the accused person is this "Are you guilty of these charges or not?" His response is often very critical to the sentence he gets. He may get a reduced sentence if he owns up to his wrong doing and accept that he is guilty. Let us imagine that we are also standing trial in the court of heaven and our eternal destiny is to be decided but many allegations have been levelled against us by our accuser, the devil. Those sinful things we have done are brought against us, and we are asked that question "Are you guilty of these charges or not?" What would our answer be? Friends, though this can only be imagined now, the Bible tells us that after we die, we must face judgment to be rewarded according to the things we did, wheth…

“The thief (Satan) does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I (Jesus Christ) have come that they (you and me) may have life, and that they (you and me) may have it more abundantly” (John 10:10).[👋🙋💃 Hi! Don't understand English?

So many people are plagued with a lot of troubles in this world; the disease burden across the world is increasing at alarming rates, accidents and all manner of tragedies abound. Too many people are oppressed and afflicted by difficulties, setbacks, disappointments, poverty and negative experiences they cannot even explain. For some, beyond the glamorous fashion and outward gait, there is serious pain that make them weep in their room when they are all alone. Some may make believe that all is fine with them, but it will take only a little probing beyond the facade to realize that all is not we…

"But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd." (Matthew 9: 36).

A compelling story of compassion is recorded in Luke 7: 11-15. A large crowd had gathered at the gate of the city of Nain. The crowd size resembled that which could be seen in a political rally but it lacked the enthusiastic cheers a political rally would have; it had the free flow of tears and wailing instead. This was no celebration of some politician standing on a podium and rolling out his manifesto and wonderful promises, it was the mourning party of the demise of the only son of a widow. The atmosphere was overcome with sadness and grief. All the hopes that was left for a poor widow was about to be laid to rest. It could not be to…

"Delight yourself in the LORD, and He shall give you the desires of your heart" - Psalm 37:4.

I warmly welcome you my friend to this wonderful new year God has given us. It is the goodness of God to us that separates us from those who passed on last year. It is not that we are better than those who have not lived to see this year. It is not the robustness of our security network that guaranteed we made it to this year despite many evils we encountered, it is the protection of God that saw us through into this year. Therefore everyone who has crossed into this year must be grateful to God and praise Him for His many benefits in our lives. We must thank God because He has never ceased to put across His lifeline to us to rescue us from drowning in the terrible waters of sin, troubles and sorrows. Indeed if it had not been the LORD that was on our side, the waters would have overwhelmed us, the streams would have gone over our souls (Psalms 124:4). Dear friends, we certainly h…

Very warm greetings to you and many wishes to you that this new year shall be a very prosperous and happy year for you. We thank God who has kept us and brought us safely to this new year. I believe that this is time to make certain resolutions for a better life this year and what can be better than to have a new you in this new year? This thought made me to consider the two aspects of change that can be made at this time. I considered that our resolutions could either be an amendment in the way we have lived in previous years or be an entire renewal of our personality. I invite you to ponder these points with me and make such decisions that will make you a new man or woman this new year.
